Friday Foil Printing Experiments!
I have had these logos kicking about for various projects for quite a bit so I thought I’d make some foil prints of them. Oh, and I had been messing with. Ferguslie Half Time School Print for a couple of years but was never quite happy with it - it makes a very nice copper foil print though.

Have a great weekend everyone 🙂

It’s been a wee while since I’ve sold one of these wee beauties. This was one of the first foil prints I made using one of the original JP Coats adverts as the basis for it.

It was a pleasure to see it again, freshly foil printed. I believe this one is heading north to Anstruther.

A nice little order of x6 A1 prints heading off today to the lovely folk at the Elim Christian Church in Gordon Street, Paisley. They must have huge walls as they already have 11 of my other prints 🙂
This is the first time I’ve made A1 prints of the ‘retro travel poster’ prints and I’m very happy how they have turned out.

My 'Paisley - The Town that Thread Built' prints are now available to purchase from The Art Department, Paisley Ltd in Causeyside Street.

Please note: It's only prints that are available; if you require a framed print, please get in touch directly with myself.

If you've never been into The Art Department, Paisley Ltd, then you are really missing out - there's a huge selection of creative art gifts, prints, cards, and collectables, all from amazing local artists and craftspeople. All at very reasonable prices!

There are also art classes and exhibitions going on... pop in for a chat if you are interested in attending classes, the staff are very friendly and the overall vibe is very inclusive - definitely an 'art for all' kind of place :)

Due to huge demand the Paisley Landmarks - The Town that Thread Built print will now only be available to order on the website. This will make it a lot easier for me to keep up and make sure no one is disappointed.

Please note: Unfortunately, I can't ship the framed prints, but I can supply them as print-only, shipped in a postal tube.

Framed prints can be bought online only if you are picking up from the studio.

Thanks,
Dave
